Come one, come all, new and old, no-one wants to be here, but at least we're glad we've got each other :) Flowers

Hope your stay here is short.

Now, some BFPs if you please and BFNs for those who are waiting for them too!

@Lime19 that is definitely a line.. not even a squinty one!!
Ovulating early would explain the missed ovulation and early result! Did you get bfn after May pregnancy? Although that would be a very long time to still have hcg in system I think.
If I were you I would be on my way to boots to stock up one some more tests to see if the line gets darker over the next couple of days :)

NoCatsHere · 02/08/2017 12:56

Oh my god lime I totally see the line, faint but it's there!! What made you test and talk me through this cycle again. I can't remember where you're at! You must have missed ov somehow

Lime - hope it all works out for you.

AF started today - I was a little relieved as we hadn't taken precautions this month and had agreed that we wouldn't try before our holiday as I didn't want to spend the whole holiday waiting to mc again. Kind of feel like I'm out of that limbo phase now and can start to move on. My FW falls right in the middle of our holiday but I'm trying not to get too excited as it did last year as well. That said, we tried like mad the first week and not so much the second and I've since learned I ovulate much later than expected.

Lime19 · 02/08/2017 13:10

Thanks all. I'm day 22. I thought I didn't ovulate this cycle due to scan on day 14ish.

I tested a) because I'm a hopeful twat and went slightly mad this tww. B) I got sore boobs c) I had some tests left

I've had one period since my erpc in may. It was pretty heavy.

I did have ewcm this cycle but my obsessive googling revealed it can happen on anovulatory cycles too.

MsJuniper · 02/08/2017 13:14

Wow that's exciting Lime! That is a decent line especially for so early on. I know it will throw up a whole load of excited and terrified emotions. Hope this is it for you.

DanielleDKEA · 02/08/2017 13:20

Hey guys im really new to this today in fact lol...!! I was just wondering for some help i already have 4 kids so you would think i no.. any how... im usually on like clock work 26 day cycle but im actually late today is the 3rd day ive done tests and all negative... i have really sore boobs which i get when im due on but the thing is there really itchy which ibe only ever had when ive been pregnant my appetite is slightly off but i have no discharge what so ever which is odd because i get it really bad when im pregnant and a fair bit when im due on but im pretty much dry?! Byt my period pains come and go and can be really extreme to really mild?? Any one else had this. And what happened? Thanks girls!! XoConfused

TheGrumpySquirrel · 02/08/2017 13:35

Omg lime! I think you must've ovulated early? How exciting. Fx for you

halloumisandwich · 02/08/2017 13:44

Wow Lime! So excited for you! Try not to get too anxious and take it a day at a time. Easier said than done I know!

AnneLovesGilbert · 02/08/2017 14:30

Oh my god Lime!!!!!!! What incredible news! So no idea how far along you are? It's been a rollercoastery week round these parts! xxxx

Ekphrasis · 02/08/2017 14:31

Oh my gosh lime!!!!! So exciting! I Hope it sticks x

Smurf123 · 02/08/2017 14:49

That's so exciting lime I hope this is a sticky one for you 😀
Thanks for your ideas Jen.. I tried staying off mn yesterday just to try and put it out of my head... Id be lying if I said that worked Grin
Just home from my scan and everything looks good for now.. Measuring 6weeks 3days with a heartrate of 140.. Midwife thought all looked good.. So all not out of the woods but hopeful!
Thank you all for keeping me sane!!! You have no idea how much you have all kept me going! Smile

Blissfulignorance · 02/08/2017 15:01

Fingers crossed for you @Lime19

I'm having the shittest day. Another baby bomb. A girl who really shouldn't be getting pregnant. Drug abuse, bad marriage. Financially crap. Life is so effing unfair sometimes.

More tears and migraine later for me. 😩🔫

SJ88 · 02/08/2017 15:10

That's great news @Smurf123 glad everything is looking as it should - I would normally tell people to get wine to celebrate things but a big bar of chocolate will have to suffice for you lol
@Blissfulignorance I hate baby bombs - the ones like that are the worst, those and family ones. My SIL & cousins are both expecting girls before xmas and found out just as I lost my baby. Was a massive kick in the teeth - I'm trying to be happy for them but it's very hard!

So another bloody flashing smiley this morning!! FFS!! I caved and bought some amazon cheapys on prime yesterday and the came today - was a definite negative this morning but think it might have just been positive but I'm not sure because I've never used them before... the top one is this morning and bottom this afternoon? What do you guys think? Not as exciting as a bfp I'm afraid but trying to get used to all this stuff so I can track cycles on Ovia lol x

Congrats lime!

Feeling a bit gloomy here as my would-be EDD approaches. Not helped by the text I got the other day:
We would like you to think about your experiences of our Antenatal Service during your pregnancy. How likely are you to recommend our antenatal service to friends and family if they needed similar care or treatment? Please reply 1 for Extremely likely, 2 for Likely, 3 for Neither likely nor unlikely, 4 for Unlikely, 5 for Extremely unlikely or, 6 for Don't know. Please reply today, texts are free of charge. Your feedback is anonymous and important to us. If you do not wish to receive further texts from the trust, please reply STOP Thank you.

TheGrumpySquirrel · 02/08/2017 15:44

@SJ88 the bottom one is definitely positive. Keep doing them 2x per day until the line starts to fade to less dark than the control line. Expect to ovulate tomorrow I think

MsJuniper · 02/08/2017 15:58

Blissful that is so tough. Have a cry but I hope the migraine doesn't come to fruition.

SJ afternoon is supposed to be a more accurate result than morning for opks so I'd say definitely make the most of the next couple of days if you can.

Water that is outrageous. There should be a way of notifying all services when you have a mc. I would text STOP but also contact the hospital.

Ekphrasis · 02/08/2017 16:18

@dannielleDKEA I'm not sure - test in a few days? Might be worth starting a separate thread in conception. This is a thread for ttc after miscarriage.

HFHKingswood83 · 02/08/2017 16:38

Afternoon all. Wow you guys have been busy! Hard to keep when new to all this.

So excited for you Lime - keep us posted on the line's development.

So sorry Blissful. Know just how you feel - my parents were busy telling me all about the collection of second cousins all due around my EDD next year just at the point we had to tell them we had MC'd (they had been out of the country when we found out and didn't want to tell them until nearer 12 weeks...)

I caved this morning and took a Tesco cheap test and didn't even get a control line! This is why I normally spend a fortune on CBD. Given that I got a BFN when I was pregnant at this point last time I'm not sure why I even bothered and wasn't going to waste it on another test - should have waited until Friday as planned. The nausea has eased at little since I switched to plain folic acid but not gone away completely. Plus my boobs feel like they are getting bigger and I am still getting abdominal twinges and tweaks - the kind that I have got the last two times I implanted (chemical and MC) rather than pre-AF pains to remaining relatively optimistic today but who knows.

NoCatsHere · 02/08/2017 18:17

danielle you might need a different group or a fresh thread. This one is for ttc after a loss/miscarriage.

lime really hope that line gets darker for you. Keep us posted. Also it gives me a good and crazy reason to test early now!

sj bottom line looks good to me! Be interesting to see how it is tomorrow and whether you get a solid smiley on a clearblue tomorrow morning.

NoCatsHere · 02/08/2017 18:18

HFH I hope it was just a crap test and you get a positive maybe if you try later this week? For me I never seem to get symptoms so it's never a sign I'm pregnant.

yellowfrontdoor · 02/08/2017 18:24

Oh my goodness, Lime! Hand-holding congratulations!

I'm so sorry to all the newbies that you find yourself here Flowers

Stuck & Juniper hope you're both well!

I had a big staff meeting at work this week. Lots of pregnant ladies means tons of baby talk. Went home and cried. I feel like it's not getting any easier.

TheGrumpySquirrel · 02/08/2017 18:30

I'm officially in TWW from tomorrow. I hate it more than AF. Because you can't do anything but wait, and you can't get on with your life either. I'm always very happy and relaxed cd2-12ish (Cd1 is pure pain).

I go on holiday in 8 days 👍🏼

Ekphrasis · 02/08/2017 18:35

Yep. I'm with you. Dpo 5 and going potty now. Had been so chilled out. We fly on Friday, hoping it will be distracting.

TurquoiseDress · 02/08/2017 18:47

@Lime19
Wow that's amazing news!
Fingers crossed for everything

I read your post last night and nodded at all you had written, I so feel the same way.
